I'm just concerned on something.. most people don't know how to ctrl-alt-del to shut down the computer.. is there an shortcut to shut down the system?? when booted directly into the media center of course

I believe you can shutdown whilst in media centre of you make your off switch one your remote do a shutdown.
Personally I would leave the off button on my media center to make it sleep.
That way it boots quick and can be woken by most remotes.
